Monitoring internal Kubernetes certificates
I am trying to find information about how to monitor internal Kubernetes certificates for expiry. I previously ran into an issue where the certificates expired and my services could no longer communicate, forcing me to rebuild the cluster. Now I'm trying to make sure that does not happen (I have a custom cluster), but ...
Based on the resources listed below, I'd say the best solution would be to update kops and its cluster to the recent version. It contains the new version of [CODE] , and its version >= 3.0.20200428 manages certificate lifecycle and will automatically request new certificates before expiration. Upgrade to kOps 1.15.3, 1...

Have a system that expires SSH keys every 90th day
I have a customer that now requires us to change every password every 90th day due to their interpretation of GDPR. That's fine for the web-based system we develop for them because we can just implement those rules. But they also require us to change the passwords on our SSH keys used to access the servers, which is, w...
The customer is wrong here and does not understand what they're talking about. Changing the passphrase on a private key is a very bad idea, because it has very counter-intuitive security properties. Normally, users think of passwords that they have changed as "no longer secret". They might become throwaway passwords fo...

Bloom filters or similar, but with no false positive
To improve some lookups, I am considering the use of Bloom Filters. But in my use-case, the most probable outcome is that the element do exists in the target set. Bloom filters can have false positive, but no false negatives. That would make me check the real (big and slow) storage most of the time because of the uncer...
The nice thing about bloom filters is that their space requirement can be scaled arbitrarily, with the cost of more false positives as the size is decreased. If you want no false positives whatsoever, you can't take probabilistic shortcuts and will not be able to reduce space requirements significantly (which isn't tha...

Since you're using a standard Oracle-to-Oracle database link, Oracle automatically does two-phase commits.

Failing ZFS Raid-Z2, need to build new pool but lack a SAS port. Can I disconnect one drive from Raid-Z2?
I have a Raid-Z2 pool with 6 * 4TB drives. All the drives have a bit over 40 000 hours running time. Now they all seem to be degrading at the same time. The pool is degraded, and all drives are marked as degraded with to many errors. But luckily no lost data at the moment. [CODE] I would like to build a new pool with R...
If your pool is already failing, degrading it further is a really bad idea. If all of your disks are erroring out together, you most likely have a failing controller or a failing PSU, rather than failing disks. You would do well to invest in an additional controller to hang your replacement disks off of as a first step...

Experiencing Delayed Updating of Front-end Code Using Google mod_pagespeed on Centos 5.X VPS
I am using Google's mod_page speed with Apache on Centos 5.X VPS (I'm not 100% sure on the exact Centos version, but I know it's in the 5 series.) I am hosting numerous WordPress websites with W3 Total Cache, all of which have the latest version of WordPress and W3TC installed. Now, here's my issue. When editing any so...
Looks like you need to clear mod_pagespeed cache. Please see mod_pagespeed FAQ: How do I clear the cache on my server? We have also heard of issues related to running both mod_pagespeed and other caching systems (especially W3TC), but it doesn't sound like that is your problem. mod_pagespeed should work fine on a VPS.

Single drive performance in RAID1
I see many tools to measure the performance of RAID1. But how to measure the performance for each SSD in RAID1?
Short answer: You probably can't. Long answer: If this is an actual volume behind a hardware RAID controller, you can't unless the RAID controller explicitly supports it. I've never seen a RAID controller that has benchmarking tools, but I guess it's not impossible . You can't use third party tools because the drives a...

AWS ELB - downstream connections higher than workers count
This might be something I fundamentally don't understand about AWS application elastic load balancer set up. It's very simple. The load balancer is a public front end, forwarding all traffic to a single target group. There are N containers in a target group. Each container running some number of workers, say X. Per Ama...
So my basic understanding is, that ELB is opening the connection from the front end application while there are no backend connections available. If that is correct, what you're missing is this: ELB is supposed to open as many connections as the requests. Its the basic concept of ELB to load balance your requests to as...

Regarding the routing issue, because your internal network uses non-routable IP addrsses (private), then your linux router must "masquerade" them when they go out through the external IP address (which is also non-routable, but your Linux router need not know that - the Cisco can handle that part).

Defragmentation of Indexes - Higher value after defragmentaion
I am trying to defragment indexes on SQL Server 2008 using ALTER INDEX--REBUILD. After defragmentation some indexes have fragmentation percentage value greater than its before defragmentation value. Is it possible or an issue ?
For indexes with small page_count this vaue is normal. Page_count can be seen from sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats. If page_count > 1000 only then go for index rebuild or reorganize. Sometimes when you rebuil index and use lower value of fill factor more pages are required and fragmentation might occur. Also when page c...

User start daemon .pid Permission denied
Trying to start a unicorn daemon as a non-root user but failing hard. Unicorn gives the the following error: [CODE] So I made the following: [CODE] ls -ld /var/run/sinatra_test returns: drwxrwxr-x 2 ruby www-data 60 Oct 27 09:55 /var/run/sinatra_test What am I missing? Still getting Permission denied errors.
Most probably you got some leftover with pid file (/var/run/sinatra_test/sinatra_test.pid). Did you killed your app (kill -9 )? If application is down, then verify if there is this pid file - if there is - please remove it. And retry to start it again.

Choosing web server software for security
Nginx, an open source web server that's relatively new on the market, has been attracting some interest lately, having performed really well in some benchmarks over the past years. In choosing server software for publicly accessible business applications, I've been wondering whether it would be irresponsible from a sec...
nginx is hosting couple of percent of the global number of websites, so it is far from being obscure. That is hundreds of thousands, if not millions of sites, and as such nginx is large enough to be a worthwhile target for exploits. nginx already has had security issues, and the open source community has disclosed vuln...

Easy answer: try both and see what works best. Obviously, whatever works best is what you should choose, but let's look into why one method might work better than the other and in what scenario it's more likely that it does. What does "null" mean in your case? This is a very common data question. Does "null" mean that ...

Why can't clients query the DB directly using SQL?
Given that a lot of modern web applications just consume JSON data from the sever, what is the point in having a REST api at all instead of just using SQL's query language?

It is possible but not generally wise to offer direct SQL access to a database. I have to make the database publicly reachable. This alone would make me nervous, as it increases the attack surface and possibility of data loss. Normal configurations would keep the DB on an intranet and a webserver in a DMZ . The webserv...

Sorry for my first comment. But at least your problem is a good example why you cannot trust block level RAID.

Does it ever make sense to create an index with additional columns after the primary key?
I am looking through our MySQL 5.7.16 database and I noticed that there are some indexes that use the primary key as the first column in the index, followed by additional columns.

As a general rule it's always better to store DATETIMEs in UTC, and then have them converted to the appropriate timezone in the display layer (be that an application, report, etc.). This can solve problems where you deal with multiple timezones, and reduce issues surrounding daylight savings time as well. It's also a g...
